Pamela Denise Mathes was the third born to Samuel Thomas Mathes, Sr. and Lillie B. Mathes.

Pam accepted Christ at an early age in life and rededicated her life to Christ in Stanton, Tennessee in front of loved ones.  She was a firecracker, full of love, and lived her life her way, full of laughter and fun!

Pam was a loving mother. Her kids meant the world to her. Then she became a grandmother. The joy she got from those two boys was unmatched.

Pam was a great sister, auntie, and friend. She graduated from Southwestern High School in Detroit, Michigan in 1980 and spent a short time serving in the United States Army before being Honorably Discharged.

Pam's career path was in the Customer Service Collections field before her health would not allow her to continue.

Pam was preceded in death by both parents, sister, Patricia; and three brothers, Sam, Jr, Ashley, and Garry Ervin.

Pam leaves to cherish her memory two children, Dominique Mathes and Desmond Mathes Sr.; two grandsons, Desmond Mathes Jr (Desmond, Sr.) and Dodrick Mathes (Dominique); three sisters, Patrice, Adrianne, and Karen; five brothers, Timothy, Terron, Michael (Lisa), Jerry, and Jarvis; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends who loved her very much. She will truly be missed.
